It's no coincidence that in three UFC bouts Johnny "Hollywood" Case was booked for Japan, Boston and Mexico City.
Taking on Francisco Trevino at UFC 188 Saturday in Mexico, Case once again finds himself boarding a plane and leaving the continental U.S. for a scrap inside the UFC's Octagon. The travel, according to the 25-year-old Alliance MMA fighter, is by design.
"I'm looking at my UFC career for longevity," Case told Bleacher Report. "It doesn't really matter who I fight at this point. It's where I fight. I want to use the UFC to my privilege, not the other way around.
